Now that mesa 9.1 is finally in raring, it is not necessary to compile mesa, even if 9.2 is probably better for radeonsi.
--enable-gbm was probably never needed, as it is already enabled by dependencies.

Thanks for packaging glamor! Works great on raring, without messing up the system too much.
BTW, I tested compiled packages from sources at your ppa on Quantal (+mesa from xorg-edgers) and it also worked great. Thanks indeed!
You should consider talking to xorg-edgers people about integrating glamor...

You are welcome, I hope the packages does not mess up the system at all.
I might look into getting the ppa to rebuild for other releases, but I have not way of checking if they work there.
I will probably iterate a bit more before trying to send it on.

I also uploaded xserver-xorg-video-intel compiled against glamor, mostly to check that it works.
SNA is still default, xorg.conf needs to be configured for glamor to be enabled.

Since the recent refresh of xorg-edgers repositories, it has become much easier to compile the necessary
mesa support without the need fro llvm3.3. Here is a recipe for easy enabling radeonsi,
tested working on both Ubuntu 12.10 & 13.04. This can be easily made into install script,
feel free to do it at your own convenience.

First, we need to temporarily enable xorg-edgers repo, just to retrieve the sources & some dev tools and libs

Can anyone make a better guide on installing the latest mesa with glamor AND s3tc support now that kernel 3.11-rc1 is out and runs well? I don't know too much about compiling some of the more complicated stuff nor feel too comfortable about messing around with trying to do it.
